When Intersection won, Tim Illingworth and Vincent Docherty were Co-Chairmen. Docherty moved to Oman, resigned and was replaced by Martin Easterbrook. Illingworth subsequently resigned and was replaced by Docherty even though he remained in Oman. Easterbrook and Docherty were Co-Chairmen during the last 18 months of planning and at the convention. With Docherty living in Oman, most of the organizational work fell to Easterbrook. At con, a team of Martin Easterbrook, Vince Docherty, Margaret Austin, Oliver Gruter-Andrew, and Fiona Anderson acted as an executive committee.

The Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre was a good facility, but even with the space in the attached Moat House Hotel, it did not have enough smaller rooms for the program. The committee remedied this by using pipe and drape curtains to subdivide an exhibit hall into four program rooms. The pipe and drape only went up about ten feet, so the "rooms" extended to the ceiling of the exhibit hall, perhaps 30 feet up. The result was a very noisy environment with continual interference between simultaneous program items. When the Glasgow in 2005 bid started, the facility had added more small rooms and their motto was "Once more with ceiling!"

John Brunner died on Friday at the convention, and the Hugo Ceremony began with Robert Silverberg giving a moving and dignified eulogy which ended with the entire convention rising for a standing ovation for Brunner.

The Science Programme was one of the first to have a set of web pages giving more detail about the programme items and their participants, and is preserved here, together with a write-up Ken and Jo Walton's multi-day colonisation game. Copies also downloadable from here. A highlight was the highly detailed Epona Project with a multinational exhibition and programme items.

This is a Worldcon page. Please extend it by adding information about the convention, including sponsoring organization, external links to convention pages, bids, awards given, notable events, the program, anecdotes and good stories, etc.
